AFP Treasury Benchmarking Program - 2013 Survey

The AFP Treasury Benchmarking Program launched in 2008, a partnership between AFP and the IBM Corporation. In 2013, AFP and IBM continued this valuable research with the sixth annual AFP Treasury Benchmarking Program survey.

As in years past, the 2013 survey collected data on cost, full-time equivalents (FTEs), cycle times, and throughput for treasury operations. This year, the added focus was around Treasury Policies- an often overlooked but integral part of a department’s operational performance.
